Certificate in Arts Management
Why choose Arts Administration
The Arts Administration Program provides you with the knowledge, the tools and the connections to manage your artistic career or to become a leader in the arts sectors. Our program offers the perfect blend of courses in Arts Administration, Arts (fine arts, music, drama, film studies and heritage) and Business, completed with six credits of experiential learning on and outside the campus.
Through this, you will:
- Acquire a solid base in business administration.
- Hone your artistic skills and sharpen your knowledge of different art forms.
- Get a better comprehension of the art world: the process of creating, the demands of producing, the role of the artist in history and in contemporary society.
- Master the nuts and bolts of how to start and run a variety of arts organizations.
- Learn how to fundraise at the private and public levels.
- Develop specific communication and marketing techniques for the arts.
- Understand international market development for the arts.
- Access a vast professional network to help you land the perfect internship, the perfect job.
Everything in the curriculum is designed with one goal in mind: to prepare you to lead a long, exciting and rewarding career in the art world. In addition, here at BU, you will be part of a passionate multidisciplinary community with plenty of hands-on opportunities.
Our program provides students with opportunities to pursue their passions in the Arts, combined with practical knowledge and skills needed when working in cultural industries. By combining Arts Administration courses, Business courses and one of the available Arts and Heritage concentrations, we believe that all graduates will possess a solid knowledge of the operations and organization of cultural institutions, both from their in-class experiences and the two practica required before they graduate.
In the first year of the program, students are introduced to basic business practices, as well as the internal and external operations of Arts organizations. They also typically take one or two courses from their Arts (Drama, Fine Arts, Film Studies, or Music) or Public History and Heritage concentration. From there, they further hone their knowledge of their chosen concentration and of Arts Administration and Business operations. At this level, students can explore such topics as: Crisis Management, Entrepreneurialism and Fundraising. It is common within year two of a student’s course of study to enroll in the internal practicum course where they work for an organization operating on the Bishop’s campus, such as the Arts Administration-run Artsfest, Musique Chez Nous, the Bishop’s University Film Festival or the Eastern Townships Resource Centre and Archives. In their final year of study, more emphasis is placed on their concentration courses but they still have opportunities to take Business and Arts Administration courses. Typically, this is also the year where students complete their external practicum, an extensive internship with an Arts or Heritage organization outside of Bishop’s. This practicum is arranged between the Arts Administration program, the student, and the external organization and can be taken anywhere in the world.
